Kukla's Korner Hockey

• Peter Chiarelli isn’t hiding the fact that he’s after a backliner. Big question is what would Boston provide in return? We’re wondering whether the Blackhawks would be interested in dealing just-benched Adrian Aucoin in a biggie with the Bruins.
• You won’t hear this from the Rangers but one NHL GM tells us that he’s certain Glen Sather will make a meaningful move in the not-too-distant future. Translated: major trade!! Then again, that’s what they’re saying in Edmonton about Kevin Lowe. If you want to put two-and-two together, Kevin and Glen are buddies.
